SIERRA COLLEGE REGISTRATION
We register voters, alternating weekly between Wednesday and the Tuesday registration teams, with a break for the summer. We are on campus from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. If you are interested in registering young voters, providing voting information and just talking politics in a friendly, nonconfrontational, and upbeat way we would love to have you join us. If you are interested in joining the Tuesday team contact mark.havener@gmail.com or for Wednesday’s team contact gbartlow@sbcglobal.net.
Recently, we posted an interesting summary of our work at Sierra College for the past year.
GET OUT THE VOTE
We also have a Progressive Neighborhood Project to help volunteers to reach out to their neighbors to GOTV (Get Out the Vote). We provide the voter registration forms and will train you.
VOTE FROM HOME
In California, any registered voter may vote using a vote-by-mail ballot instead of going to the polls on Election Day. To request a vote-by-mail ballot for a single election or to request a vote-by-mail ballot for all elections (permanent vote-by-mail voting), follow the simple process described here.
Join our Voter Outreach Committee and Get Out the Vote
Our Voter Registration / Outreach Committee hopes to start meeting again soon. Please check back for more information.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I VOTE BY MAIL?
IF when you registered to vote, you initialed the “Vote By Mail” option on your registration form, you will receive your ballot approximately 29 days prior to the election. To Vote, follow the instructions on the ballot.
WHAT DO I DO IF MY VOTE BY MAIL BALLOT HAS NOT ARRIVED?
IF you have not received your ballot by 20 days before the election contact your County Clerk’s office and explain the problem.
CAN I VOTE AT THE POLLING PLACE EVEN IF I HAVE A VOTE BY MAIL BALLOT?
YES! If you prefer to vote at your polling place and you have received a “Vote by Mail” ballot, then take that ballot to the Polling place and request a new ballot. In any event, you may cast a ballot at your polling place on Election Day regardless of any other action you may have taken. It will be a provisional ballot and will be counted last and only IF you have not voted elsewhere in this election.
